When a dog in Charleston County, South Carolina, became trapped inside a storm drain 120 feet above the Mississippi River, it seemed like certain death for the animal; that is, until a local deputy dove headfirst into the drain to rescue the pup.

Concerned neighbors noticed that the dog had been circling the storm drain near Etiwan Avenue in West Ashley, WSOC reported. Upon closer examination, they found a second dog trapped inside, too, and they called animal control.
